How about bring them all home
We should be demanding all the people denied due process and exported to a foreign gulag, be brought home.

See also: the Wisconsin university system, where Robin Vos is using DEI as a pretext to limit funding/enact cuts for the second consecutive biennium
We do not have to take Trump’s bait on DEI, because they do not care about some policies being “problematic.” They are disengenously using DEI to target civil rights protections, DEI is a prextext, and it is not reasonable to concede they have a point when it only helps their reactionary push.
If we're being honest, the Trump rollbacks are often illiberal and authoritarian, but lots of DEI has been problematic, too.

Dark skies reflect my sadness at the firings of all the humans that help keep the #GreatLakes as healthy as possible. Tonight I mourn the loss of the 14 @usfws.bsky.social employees that kept the invasive sea lamprey at bay. My fishery will be hurt. 😢😢🌊🌊

Interesting: the State Department’s procurement forecast detailing a $400 million order for "armored Tesla" has now been edited to "armored electric vehicles." The document shows the edit was made tonight at 9:12 p.m. -- after it was highlighted in reports

Hold off on USAID obituaries and suggesting staff have gone.
Most actions so far are under legal challenge, only Congress can get rid of USAID (and its funding), the staff are on administrative leave.
What has happened is terrible, but it is time to push back, not give in.

In Wisconsin, we've shown how permanent, year-round organizing at the state level can claw back power from the GOP.
The 14 state legislative seats we flipped in Wisconsin this cycle have put us on track to win majorities in 2026.
A blue trifecta is finally within reach.

Bedtime reading (Peter Rock’s Night Swimmers) led to a deep dream of ocean swimming, safe but in big crashing waves. One of my favorite kinds of reading experiences.
